TRIAGE - starting 24 June 25

The way you book GP appointments is changing. We are moving to triaging requests for appointments. These changes are in line with NHS recommendations to provide a modern GP practice model with use of digital technology tools to provide fair access to medical care. This means that the new system will ensure that the patients most in need of urgent appointments will be given them. You will need to complete an online Triage form via our website. Those patients who do not have internet access can telephone and a reception will help to complete the form and it will be submitted to the Triage GP to review.

Survey for Carers

Unpaid Carers & Employment For many unpaid carers, balancing employment with caring responsibilities can be an uphill struggle. We recognise that carers often face significant barriers to securing meaningful and sustainable employment. This survey produced on behalf of ECC aims to explore those barriers and provide better insights to inform the changes needed by policymakers, employers, and support organisations. Please complete the survey. Thank you Healthwatch. https://www.smartsurvey.co.uk/s/ZIHAYA/

Brushing your Teeth!!

Looking after your child’s teeth from an early age sets them up for a lifetime of healthy smiles. Good oral health isn’t just about avoiding fillings – it helps children eat, speak and feel confident as they grow. Getting kids to brush their teeth can be challenging, but we know it is important for kids to learn and create great oral health habits early on to ensure a lifetime of healthy smiles.
